On Wednesday (February 21), Sheeran laid the "is he already married?" rumors to rest on the BRIT Awards red carpet. A Sky News reporter and singer-songwriter discussed his numerous award nominations before getting down to what everyone has been thinking: "The ring that you were spotted wearing last night, what does it mean?" the reporter asked Sheeran eagerly.

"It's an engagement ring," he clarified. “Cuz I don’t know, I feel like it’s good to both do things.”

When asked how much of the wedding has been planned and if there is a date set, the pop star was a little more elusive, saying, “It will be a situation like this where no one knows.”

During the award ceremony, Sheeran performed an emotionally charged rendition of "Supermarket Flowers" and went home with the Global Success Award. He was also nominated for the British Video Award and Brit Award for British Single for "Shape of You," MasterCard British Album of the Year for Divide and British Male Solo Artist Award.
